    Unfortunately, we don't know much of anything about the safety of CBD oil in breastfeeding mothers. I doubt that it will affect your milk supply. Some of it will pass into milk, but depending on dose, levels will be infinitesimally low. I cannot tell you it is safe for your infant....we simply don't know anything at this time.

    Is it safe to continue breastfeeding if I try CBD Oil to manage my symptoms?
    Just wondering if anyone here knows anything about it. Not marijuana. There’s no thc in cbd oil. I’d like to take it for depression but I don’t want to pass it to baby or have it affect my supply negatively

    MommaAC,

    We do not have any data regarding the safety of CBD oil at this time so we are unable to comment on the safety of using it while breastfeeding.

    This was taken from an earlier post by Dr Hale:

    "There is virtually no research done on the use of Cannabis in breastfeeding mothers. The old stuff was not particularly good. I am getting ready to publish some new data but that is some months away.

    As for Cannabidol (CBD), while it appears to be somewhat safer than delta-9-THC, which produces psychological effects, Cannabidiol seems to be somewhat safer.

    But, we still do not know much if anything about it in breastfeeding or pregnant moms or its potential effects on neurobehavioral outcome in exposed infants. Tom Hale Ph.D."
